I knew this would happen in my match! First, Mr AS's bot would have the wedge advantage to cause serious damage, and then my bot would end up all over the place for being too fast. Hence in the next match, the match felt more like my bot would of said "I'm out of here!". But still, well done Mr AS.

Have to agree with Philippa for this one. The Fight between Great White and Spin Doctor in my eyes was so close, the match could of gone in either one of their favor. But in the end, I'm still glad that Great White in the end. Regardless of that fight, some of the other fights were also pretty interesting; seeing Tanshe in action against Dark Knight felt like a ram charging into a person while waiting on a good time to buck them away, Grill judge just ripping into the shell of Shield of China was fun to watch, and Rust boar having a good go at Extreme despite having a feeling that the fight was a bit one sided due to how easily Rust Boar took on Extreme with extreme ease. Though, I'm going to have to keep on watching for that next week, there's a pretty good line up of bots including Blue, Griffin and Crossfire.

Watching Fracture vs Jamied666 made me question my entire experience playing RA2 and beyond. Excellent.
gg Dark-Al, looks like not all of my crazy ideas work. My robot can't win against an HS if it can't get past its weapon. Also it looks like the HS was able to hit the extenders on my robot's weapon, which means I lose a bunch of weapons quickly. Good luck in future battles.
I'm starting to get a better understanding of how stock battles play out, and how HS centric the metagame is. It doesn't look like pokers can do well here in general.
I really forgot to say back in my last post, thanks for the fight Uberpryo, and good luck in the losers bracket.

I was honestly surprised that Armour-Spinner manged to win against Uberpyro's The Bop Monster. I honestly thought that my bot was going to be trashed up, but to my surprise, Armour Spinner manged to hold up, ripped off the weapon of The Bop monster and won both matches.

Grindelwald: Interesting robot, the back of it looks a bit boxy but the front looks cool!
I do admit that my bot did end up looking a bit boxy by the end result, mainly due to my choice in components for the drive and the weapon (Grindalwald uses TWM3R2s for the drive and the weapon consists of a wide medium burst piston and a medium for the bar), myself having problems trying to get some armor plates on without making the robot too ugly. So in the end, the bot ended up very box like.
As for my first fight, that was disappointing. I hoping that Grindalwald would at least manage to get in at least one flip in. But to Pressure's bot, that wasn't going to happen. Still, congratulations on win anyway Pressure.

G.K. vs Dreamcast is everything I could have asked for and more.
I can agree on that one. Seeing G.K's HaZZard decapitating the chassis off of Dreamcast's Stilt bot clean off definitively made my day.

Well, I'll being taking my free win now thank you. Despite Genocide's bot having the speed advantage, it was a easy job for Armour spinner to have the weapon advantage to cause the damage and finish off the job. But I still cannot wait till my bot's next match.

im already planning on doing those man
I'll still keep mine to myself then and anyone else who wants to view them. After all, there's no harm in sharing a little ranking, results table. But I'll just let you do what you want to do.

So after watching KOB, I am surprised by the quality of the presentation of the show overall. Despite the case of occasional ad breaks during the count down of a match (but that's what happen when watching a TV stream) and the music not fitting in on some cases, nearly everything else was pretty well executed. The Fights were exciting, the match build-up sometimes properly felt in place though some of the fillers did feel a little overdrawn, and there were times when having a slow motion shot was worth it. The fights themselves in the end were enjoyable especially seeing Spectre in action as well as seeing Megabyte ripping the drum off Stingray. Though the third fight wasn't to interesting due to one of the robots possibly having radio transmission problems, despite a few surplexs from the clamp bot. But the rest is enough to keep me watching and waiting for the next episode.

I see that you manged to make pretty much a good Panic Attack clone. Anyway, I love the amount of skinning that you've done,especially with the mouth piece and the snappy eyes.

My verdicts:
1. It's clearly a cluster of AGOD mess by the looks of things. Especially with the right drive motor being messed up due to AGOD.
2. What an perfect nincombot. Though while I do prefer the AOSTH design more over the game design, I'm loving the amount of extender work on both models.

So I got some votes and I didn't win anything. Well, regardless of that and least some people had the idea of voting for me in the Most bizarre category and best Stock builder despite my average building skills. Still, lets hope the rest of the awards go well.

It's a good start. First of all your drive too weak to start with. For a pop-up is not only about having a good wedge, but also having your bot to quickly get under your opponents to gain an advantage before they do, so I recommend that you switch to using High-powered Z-teks for a little more speed for the same amount of power and also to use upon the remaining weight you have left. I also avoid using Y connectors for the weapons since you won't get plenty of weapons on them. What I do is that I use a single 20cm extender for the base and I use the eFFe glitch to add on some side extenders to add some more razors. I also recommend moving your DDTs much close because with your bot's wedge, most bots will just go onto the wedge while most of the weaponry won't do most of its job. I know your tendency of not reading long posts, but this will help if you just read it.
Yeah, I replaced the drive with HPz's because I originally mistook the normal Z-Teks for HPz's.
However, I'm going to use a 140 cm square extender as it weighs the least.
I'm trying to currently make the DDT's as close as possible, and I'll learn the eFFe glitch sometime today.
I wouldn't use the 140cm extender if I were you. Sure the 140cm extender weighs alot less than the 20cm, but you're going to find yourself with an overly long pole for a weapon that can be broken off easily from outside the chassis from other weapons and unable to hit other bots effectively since the razor tip will be placed too far away from how I'm thinking about it.

Well that's me out despite my bot putting up a good fight. Still, at least now I can just sit back and just watch the event unfold before my eyes.
